Sweet Lyla at Three Months...







It seems like just yesterday I was photographing Lyla's newborn images. She was beautiful as a newborn but it quite stunning now. Many people will say that all babies are cute, but I beg to differ. This child has nothing to worry about in that department. Her Dad on the other hand will have some sleepless nights as she grows into adulthood...The other parents out there can attest to just how quickly the time flies and her folks will learn this too.

I truly love watching how the birth of a child affects new parents and its one of the most remarkable, yet humbling times in our lives. Ten years ago I couldn't have even pictured myself as a Dad, but now it is what drives me and is certainly the most rewarding aspect of my life. I'm fairly confident that both Jim and Beth Ann feel that same now or will very soon.

The bond that forms between a parent and child is pretty amazing and definitely runs the gamut of emotions. I feel so blessed to do what I do for a living. To record these moments and ever growing relationships is a gift that I cherish. Above are a few samples from our session...

Pre-Easter Madness...










Back to blogging after too long of a break. Since my March Madness Bracket got busted, I figured I would post some Pre-Easter Madness from my recent Easter sessions at PLAY. It was a blast and I really want to thank Colleen at PLAY for the wonderful space as well as the folks from the House Rabbit Society of Georgia which supplied the Bunnies. I also of course want to thank all of the folks who came out for the sessions. There were many new faces along with some very familiar ones. I hope you had as much fun as I did!

I will say at one point (when some of the kids were screaming and poking the rabbits in the eye) I was questioning my chosen profession, but I quickly got past that. Here are just a few of my favorites from the weekend...
